Dr. Gupta’s expertise in interventional pain management ensures a focus on minimally invasive techniques to help patients regain their quality of life.
Understanding Lower Back Pain
Lower back pain is one of the most common medical complaints and can be caused by a variety of factors, including muscular strain, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and spinal stenosis. It can be acute or chronic and may be associated with other symptoms such as numbness or tingling in the legs.
Diagnostic Approach
Dr. Gupta and our team utilize a comprehensive diagnostic approach that may include a physical examination, medical history review, and advanced imaging technologies such as:
- X-rays: To detect bony abnormalities, fractures, or spinal alignment issues.
- MRI Scans: For a detailed view of disc integrity, spinal cord, and surrounding soft tissues.
- CT Scans: To provide a cross-sectional view of the spinal structure.
- Electromyography (EMG) / NCV: To assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them.
